International Economic Development Council (IEDC): The American Rescue Plan (ARPA) and Economic Development (Webinar)

The International Economic Development Council (IEDC) is hosting a webinar on The American Rescue Plan (ARPA) and Economic Development on Friday, April 2^nd, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM.

The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) represents $1.9 trillion in supplemental federal spending, as well as new initiatives, to help communities respond to the COVID-19. As vaccine roll-out accelerates, the “light at the end of the tunnel” is starting to come into view. How will the ARPA help your community recover and rebuild? What opportunities are created by the legislation and how can you make the most of them? From $3 billion in new funding for EDA to the renewal of the State Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI), in this webinar we’ll talk about all the components of ARPA that you need to know about, as well take stock of the federal response to the crisis as a whole over the past year.
